Phil, We are trying to get a new geology course up and running in the 2 E bucket for the Fall. Due to the time crunch we would like it offered as an Experimental. My faculty will vote on it today and we will have it ready for next Tues senate. Some questions: Will Pathways accept an experimental course? Does the Curriculum committee have to approve or it go to the senate for a vote? 

Rationale: These were mothballed courses which the Department wishes to offer Fall 2013. They were not
included in the listing of courses for which the Academic Senate has already changed the prefixes last Fall.
This is needed to make them consistent with the prefixes of other active classes.
